Deuteronomy 17:8-13

8If there ariseH6965 a matterH1697 too hardH6381 for thee in judgmentH4941, between bloodH1818 and bloodH1818, between causeH7379 and causeH7379, and between stroke and stroke, mattersH1697 of controversy within thy gatesH8179, then shalt thou ariseH6965, and goH5927 up to the placeH4725 which Jehovah thy 1GodH430 will chooseH977.

9And thou shalt comeH935 unto the priestsH3548, the LevitesH3881, and unto the judgeH8199 that shall beH1961 in those daysH3117, and inquire; and they shall declareH5046 unto thee the sentenceH4941 of judgmentH4941;

10and thou shalt do according to the tenor of the wordH1697, which they of that placeH4725 which Jehovah will chooseH977 shall declareH5046 unto thee; and thou shalt takeH8104 heedH8104 to do according to all that they instructH3384 thee:

11according to the sentenceH4941 of the lawH8451 which they shall declareH5046 unto thee, and according to the judgmentH4941 which they shall tellH5046 thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the wordH1697 which they shall declareH5046 unto thee, to the rightH3225 handH3225, or the left.

12And the manH376 that shall actH6213 presumptuously, and not hearken unto the priestH3548 that standeth to serveH8334 there before Jehovah thy 2GodH430, or unto the judgeH8199, that manH376 shall dieH4191; and thou shalt putH4191 away evilH7451 from IsraelH3478.

13And all the peopleH5971 shall hearH8085, and fearH3372, and no more actH2102 presumptuouslyH2102.
